Yeah the Devs are playing it safe with the American worlds, they don't want a repeat of the whole snowy escape debacle, it was a headache, I sorry for my incoming rant, Snowy Escape was clearly a Japanese themed pack and yet Non-Japanese people got something removed in a pack that wasn't themed about them, What's next a Korean pack without K-pop, Buddhist or festivals like the Daeboreum because Non-Koreans found it offensive, there's has to be a line drawn somewhere, so packs don't get watered down and lose part of the culture,
I know I'm repeating myself but I'm sorry, the way the Devs mishandled Snowy Escape is still a Heated Topic for me.
However that said I 100% agree with the whole out of Earth Worlds idea.
Though I agree that the Komorebi debacle was very poorly-handled, I don't think they're playing it safe. After we got Snowy Escape, we got the British countryside, and a Mediterranean island that seems to take inspo from Italy and Spain.
Of the three American worlds we got since Snowy Escape, High School Years
had to be American; it's heavily based on US education and high school TV dramas. No other country is as recognizable when it comes to high school media, especially for a primarily-North American audience. San Sequoia's in a similar boat, since it was likely inspired by Full House and other family sitcoms. While it's less dependent on being American than Copperdale, giving us an American world here makes a lot of sense.
