Destiny needs a story shift toward the Light (Destiny)

Your point, though, is well taken, I just don't think it can be addressed the way you suggest. Perhaps the way to handle it would have been to structure it so each patrol destination had a public area that was inaccessible until the required activities were cleared-- the idea being that humanity is fighting to establish various beachheads in anticipation of a coming conflict, rather than trying to end said conflict.

I like this idea. I'm also wondering about an alternative idea where Bungie does what they've been doing with some of the quests that have been popping up throughout Taken King. After Oryx is defeated, maybe some quests turn to clearing areas. The next thing you know, certain areas open up where we begin establishing colonies or something (that maybe turn into hub locations like the Reef and Tower, but with less grindy mechanics attached to them?) that both need defending (public events like in the Patrol space of the Dreadnaught) as well as more fun or interesting exploration tasks that open up areas that maybe we weren't able to get to previously. I'm sure Bungie could come up with all sorts of fun and innovative things to explore and do. A type of Skyrim or Mass Effect approach, maybe.
