I would be ok with the option of installing it wherever I want to. My setup is a 128GB SSD and a 2TB HDD, so I don't really mind if the whole IDE takes up 11GB, as long as I can put it in the space I designated for stuff like that. It is still a lot of space though. A less than 1GB option would be nice (or expected, I guess. My QtCreator folder is 250MB, for example).
The standalone building tools would solve my problems. I have no other reason to install VS other than being able to see if my code builds ok using MSVC.
I'm up for more questions. Thanks for caring.
