Maybe... (Destiny)

Maybe dumping tons of glimmer into your ship will unlock the ability to go to farther worlds. Like the Moon and Mars are default unlocked, but getting to the derelict in Cassini will take a suped up ship

That would work. I'm not sure I like that kind of barrier, but there has to be some kind of barrier in place..

It would certainly justify the upgrade.

In a way it could make sense in-game. So you have this ship, and it's a pretty nifty ship to manage getting to the Moon or Mars, but this little thing is also somehow awesome enough to go way further out to other planets? Maybe this thing flat out requires upgrades in order to get going, or so that you don't pay a really nasty price.

Not sure how it would work, but I guess I'm sort of thinking about it like in Mass Effect 2 where if you don't upgrade your ship, you can pretty much bet on lots of people dying and/or failure.
