Should season follow real world change?

I think it was said the seasons cycle will change within each month of game play. But too me that just doesn't feel right. What about real world holidays, if we do in game events based on real world holidays, it will look odd doing Christmas in a summer setting, and Halloween in winter. I love the idea of having seasons in the game, and it effects the area, but should the cycle be slowed down a bit?
What do you guys think?

However, this doesn't stop IS from making seasonal events.
You know Southern Hemisphere have their christmas in Summer right?
You can check this season chart depending on the location;

I will love to see the seasons change in AOC and will be finding a part of the world where they do change just for that reason. As for in game events I hope they can relate them in some way into the lore of Verra and thus make these events feel like they are part of the worlds history and have a reason for being.
No thank you.
What about places that have shorter periods in some seasons?
Or like places where there never snows? oO
Or places where there's always snow?
Ummm nooooooooooooooo Who said the US has it's own special seasons haha
Mainly I am thinking the one mouth cycle is too short, IMO it should be a little longer. If following real world seasons is too hard, just find the happy middle ground.
I think a month/two weeks per sesaon is fine tbh
Also, last I heard they mentioned 1 week per sesaon, not 1 month, they might have said 1 month since then though but I've not come across it oO
Naah, let Ashes has it's own cycle.
In addition I feel weekly cycles within a month is enough to keep gathering and crafting exciting and not have resource starvation!
It also allows flexibility for seasons to be shortened/lengthened etc and feel the impact
I'm excited for season
Like Halloween=Celebration of @Nagash's Death Day
Christmas=St Steven's Day (which is an actual holiday on 12/26 apparently)
Labor Day=Tulnar Appreciation Day
Thanksgiving=Give Karthos Food Day
I dunno about St. Stevens Day hanging sandals isn't a good idea. The coal would fall through the straps. Then how would we keep the fire place going?
And real-world seasonal holidays really means US seasonal holidays.
