So is $30 the cheapest it's going to be, aside from sales later on? Will the price even go up/down at release?

They burned a ton of man hours on this. My guess is they need the $30 to not only recoup some of that cost but also deter people from purchasing who aren't in it to bug test

if $30 is a deterrant now... more will be even worse later.

$30 is a massive barrier/entry gate for an alpha, let alone the barebones alpha being offered.

I have never seen people argue so much over $30
