UPDATE 1: As a few of our forum members have found out, they won beta keys that are
outside of their region (IE: having a Square Enix account in North America, but
winning a German beta key). To work around this, you may need to create a Square Enix
account to match the region of the key you won.

Famitsu Interview
Famitsu has published another FFXIV interview from Gamescom (translated by
FFXIVCore). Here’s some high-level points from the interview.
Open beta is planned to start the beginning of September.
Complaints from beta testers about the mouse control mainly came from players outside
of Japan. Japanese gamers don’t really use a mouse, which is why it hasn’t received
a lot of SE’s attention.
They are working to improve party play and give players more of a reason to group
with others.
Open beta will grant players access to the other 2 starting cities. Ul’dah,
Gridania, and Limsa Lominsa should be playable in the open beta.
They plan to add more classes in future version updates and expansion. We may see
another magic class in an early major version update.
