Aussie here, so not well versed on this topic, but native content sounds gorgeous. All the beautiful patterns, the dream catchers and totems like in Brother Bear! I really don't know much about Native Americans, but it would be gorgeous, if they consulted some of the major tribes or groups they want to use items from.
Maybe leave out objects that will be used in the 'wrong way' like headdresses, and maybe some sacred items, and primarily do clothing, maybe a hairstyle, a hat, the bolo ties I've heard about on Parks and Recreation and maybe some clutter type objects, and even crystals or some kind of stones that could be used in RoM.
@munroele they could also go with the "alternate world" approach. Instead of making tribal stuff they could make modern thigns as if the natives never had the interception of europeans in their existence with modern/unique furniture bearing the patterns, maybe one of those tall lamps resembling totems and all of that.
To me, the best pack for adding native representation so far would've been Outdoor Retreat, but maybe a Horses GP or a Farming EP could lead us to a eco friendly and respectful approach to harvesting nature. IDK.
