That's accurate. 3S is the latest one chronologically and it takes place in 1999.

So they've given up on explaining the cell phones and what not?

Shadaloo and Illuminati have accelerated technological progress in Street Fighter universe.

I mean, they have androids with self-learning AI and human cloning and whatever the hell else in '95.

Why do the eyes look worse on the story costume?

Paste the image in mspaint, make a rectangle selection around one set of eyes and drag them closer to the other set of eyes. They're different, the ones on the story costume are larger.

Yeah, it's the same thing as Venom Snake having a holographic smartphone and and a fully functioning and articulate self-contained robotic hand that he controls with his brain in like 1984 over in Metal Gear Solid world. You chalk it up to the alternate history being completely weirded up by the existence of actual, for real supervillains and vampires and stuff.

If they went past SF3 in the timeline maybe they would feel like every game can't eventually have all the stages and characters from SSFT2.

We had cellphones back then. They weighed 75 pounds and had a 4 foot long antenna and came with a backpack you had to crank. 2 hours of charging up the backpack gave you about 2 minutes of cell time.

The Street Fighters probably bypass all that by simply charging the phone with their chi or ki or Χ or whatever.

They could invent some story thing that says having lots of ki energy slows down the aging process or something

They could also stop bullshitting and just admit that 4/5 were a reboot of street fighter & that nobody really cares about the lore of street fighter beyond a wrestling/comic book style attachment to the individual silly storylines of their favorite characters.

They are japanese so the lore being terrible, insane, and sacred is very important

I didn't even know this had anything to do with Street Fighter despite the name and the main character being called Ken because I was a stupid kid and the game play was nothing alike. So I had fun with it anyway.

Changing the numbers in a meaningful way means that they were wrong before, and no one at Capcom is wrong. In fact, the fans are the ones who are wrong.

No one man should have all that Psycho-Power.

Small changes like 1f slower or faster matter an incredibly huge amount. New things become possible or things stop working cause of "tweaking the numbers".

That said I'm a big fan of the s3 patch as its moving the game forward albeit slowly in the right direction.

ya its moving in the right direction like how if a truck is speeding straight towards you and you move to the side to try to avoid it but instead of running you drop to your knees and crawl like a baby on the ground
