Mine is 3.8gb, it used to be WAY MORE than that O_o
Was it always this small or....did anet slip something in?
Anyone checked out the gw.dat filesize yet?

That size is about right.
That is the result of 3 campaigns and EOTN which has way better textures.

onerabbit
3.6 gig here
Matfei

5,828,272 Kilobytes (almost 6 gigs). I have three campaigns, 12 char slots, and EotN. Though, I was under the impression that everyone had the same dat file, and that keys merely granted access to that content. I did do the -image switch last tiem i played, so I should have everything... maybe you guys need to load some maps still.

Id suggest just copying your templates and reinstall/DL the game. Then replace your templates, and run a defragmenter that can handle the GW.dat (windows defragmentor cannot).
That topic is covered here.

This will also help your game run a LOT smoother in general.
EDIT: Powerdefragmenter takes a very long time to run through the whole process, but it does do a thorough job i use it myself. Just a heads up.

my GW.dat is 3,754,528 kb big (3.58 GB). I have all 3 chapters & EotN. Although anyone who's run -image recently should have same files as me. I have run -image, so have everything downloaded. Installed from Proph, Factions & Nightfall CD's and d/l'ed EoTN b4 preview event.

3.05GB (3,281,674,240Mb) on mine, all 3 chapters but not EotN

Proph, Faction, Nightfall and Eye of the Noth here, but I have 4,9 GB... Maybe because I didn't delete this folder ever? I have all updates from last 22 months :]
Strangely enough, at laptop I have something about 3 GB.
