Every fantasy setting is Eurocentric, for the most part. Sure, you'll get the occasional far east setting, and maybe a north Africa and Arabia setting

But what about a setting based off America? Using American archetypes, and American culture? What would that be like?

Boring and shit.

Think some native american shit. That would be very cool. Native americans and indigenous people, which by culture extension encapsulates a large part of the americas, have fucking hella rich oral and mythological culture. I swear. Fucking skinwalkers, shamans, witch doctors, night ghouls, crows and shit. Trust senpai its a genre that has yet to be expanded on.

That's wrong.
Malazan Book of the Fallen - Several continents worth of environments, the second part is in sandnigger land with authentic durka sperging out.
Black Company - half is in fantasy India

If anything REAL european fantasy is rare, only the Prince of Thorns comes to mind. Everything else is just 'inspired' instead of referencing Europe.

Kryta and Maguuma from the game Guild Wars are based off of the American continents during the tribal era.

More South America than North America though.

But you're right. Even best selling games like Uncharted were mostly set in South America and shit.

If it's based on a native Americans it would be cool 2bh. Also Steven King has his fantasy setting of Dark Tower based on wild west.
Also we have Russian fantasy here like Volkodav based on ancient Rus, so no, fantasy is not Eurocentric, just the most popular fantasy setting are. Also there are settings like Forgotten Realms with various cultures in it, from ones based no Russia to the ones based on Arabs.
