DeMignon: Perfectly fine! If you finish one game a week on average, that'll be amazing 17 years to come! That is, if you stop buying further games of course ;-)

Timelegend: 17 years of gaming does sound amazing. It will be faster than that because of weekends and holidays though. But then again more new games will come out... but hold on, some day I will retire and have more time to play. So there's still hope to catch up :D

silent49: how big is your GOG folder?
avatar
Timelegend: It's 10 pages long if that's what you mean?
no size wise.

I'd guess around 4tb easy? Am curious since GOG is a few hundred under 2000 in total games I wonder how much space the entire GOG library is without extras/goodies/installer files.

It would also depend rather heavily on which games he's bought. If it's mostly cheap old games, then the size is gonna be considerably smaller than if he's bought a representative number of both new and old games, graphics heavy and basic pixelart. It's a lot easier to get such a big collection of cheap oldschool games.

I have 1000 games as well and the folder (including all Windows installers, extras and sometimes an additional language version) is 1.28 TB.

Wow I'd guess you could store the entire GOG catalog on a 3tb drive then. Steam would probably be around 10tb

Where can you see the total size of all your games? Do you actually have to download them all first? Because I haven't...

download all your games. Then go to the "games folder" in your GOG installation folder. Right click folder and properties. It will count the size of your games folder.

I have 25 games and my folder is 74gb

Yes, I've downloaded them all and store them on an external HDD.

Gratz. I just made it to 1500 the other day. (Thank GOG for the sale; got stuck on the icky number too long for my liking.) I'm not planning to win all of them, but only a few are genuinely so terrible that I'm not going to launch them at all; and even those come with extras worth the sale price.

For example: the massive pile of idiocy that is the Stalker games. I'm a particle physicist and I live in Russia; I used to work as a secretary of sorts for the guy who invented the concrete for the sarcophagus, and I can't even, what the holy cockshitting fuck. For all the snake people here who don't get it, it's 2016 now. It was 15 years from 1986 to 2001 (when 9/11 happened), and it's been 15 years from 9/11 to this day. Imagine the premise of Stalker applied to Ground Zero. No, I'm not complaining it's disrespectful or anything (although of course it is), it's just mindbogglingly stupid.
But they come with FLAC soundtracks, surely they're worth $2, right?

Or there's Asshole Simulator 2014. I've got one IRL, I don't need a simulator. But again, it's got a FLAC soundtrack by a composer with name-recognition, and there haven't been many of them historically: let's see, Kirill Pokrovsky, Mark Morgan, Austin Wintory, Carlos Viola, Pablo Vega, Jake Kaufman, Danny Baranowsky and that one guy. Obviously worth $2, even if the game is cat puke.

Congrats +1

I nearly have 200

Doubt I'll play them all due to me old age.

I just get a buzz out of buying games, I'm weird I think.

All the best
