(But it's also heavily on sale right now, for $15 - https://store.steampowered.com/app/526870/Satisfactory/)

Personally, I don't mind at all. For one I bought it at $30, but also I have 2,000 hours logged. Per hour that's a cost of $0.02 per hour (at the new price) if I had bought it at $40. I'm all for calling out studios like ubisoft for being greedy, but coffee stain has done a very fair job with Satisfactory IMO, and they very well deserve $10 more for the game.

That being said, go pick it up now for $15

Honestly as much as I dislike it raising in price, if this is a price increase for the initial release that's completely fine due to the fact that the game is definitely worth more than they're selling it anyway, plus I give them props alone for releasing the fact that they are going to raise the price because most Studios would just have this really good deal and then raise the base price after the sale never letting anyone know ahead of time

I’d agree but apparently this is due to “inflation”, so more than likely they’ll increase it again on release.

You apparently haven't watched the video. He explicitly said they wanted to raise it on release but have to do it earlier because of some steam policies

The video literally opens with him saying it’s inflation…
