Westwolves is like the worst name of an expansion

[Aniya_Estlihn]

For context:

Westwolves was initially picked up being registered by Square Enix by a twitter trademark scraping bot on the 6th alongside Slatebound and Starbreakers.
This went unnoticed until Sunday of this past week when it started to gain traction in the XIV community.

Within hours of people starting to take notice of and talk about it, the actual registered trademarks were taken down from the relevant English and Japanese databases and the tweet went missing.
None of you are finding anything because SE, presumably, clamped down on the spread of these three trademarks before more people could see them.

Sadly, no one can provide you proof and all you'll hear from people amounts to hearsay because none of us who -did- see it, thought to take a screenshot of the tweet or the chizai-watch registry page for the titles as who would really think a trademark could be hidden or rescinded after registry? It's a bit unexpected. That said, Skiros fell for the 4chan and twitter born meme of people parroting it as the expansion name, its not confirmed, its just a meme because SE buried it and two other trademarks before they could be caught by media outlets.

Not many of those who are talking about it actually think its the title, its just a fun tongue in cheek meme borne hot off the heels of Endwalker's pre-reveal speculation of being "Forspoken" and we all know how -that- turned out. lol

4chan is running with it like wildfire, but no one actually believes its the title.
We just know it was a trademark SE filed earlier this month.

For once, he's not trolling, but rather fell for the trolling of someone else.
Take that as you will, I find it hilarious, personally.
