9 years in the making of the mod is a very well deserved respect and i apologise that i came a cross as rude, It was never my intention, It just English language is a pain, i'm going to be honest, only reason i can read now is because of this game, i had no interest in letters they just looked like a load of scribble on paper when i was younger, the art and story of what was going on in final fantasy i wanted to know what the characters were saying. so yeah i can guess i was defensive on the subject, I also just got done reading the interview Burke did, which was very enlightening.
also yes that is correct UpRising, but as you stated formation is a very long word, which is why i believe they chose to go with order when they ported it in English, as Form has multiple meanings it can cause trouble for those that don't know English very well, but i also believe the choice of picking order was to make translating it to other countries slightly easier, as i believe the game was translated from Japanese to English, then from English to German, French etc
also thank you bigsassy for what you have put, you explained things much better then i could ever do so is very helpful for me
