Wow yeah it seems we are alike as gamers! And yes I totally agree with a game having a purpose, that would set it apart from most games. I love crafting, building bases etc. and can pour 50 hours into base building alone :D but if that survival had a purpose other than to just survive, like you said, that would be an experience on a whole other level. Like you're a character in a book or a movie, not just a game. It would be an actual story. So yeah I absolutely agree with both of your points. Your vision for the game is awesome and I really can't wait to see where it goes from here, no matter how much time it takes. :)
