Meshing with strangers (Destiny)

Playing with people you know gives you the best D&D experience.

While I agree with your overall point, I'd like to counter this particular argument. I, for one, have never played a D&D game in real life. However, I actually GOT TO KNOW Beorn, Raga and Chewie through playing an online post-by-post D&D clone. I'd say it improved my relationship with the three of them (and our GM, who I hadn't even heard of before said game) much, much faster and better than even the forum here.

My point is, what if you could get the Raid to that to you? Instead of seeking people you already mesh with, what if the Raid meshed you with people you barely know?* In fact, I can also confirm the Vault of Glass and King's Fall have both gotten me closer to other DBOers than the forum as well.

*I concede "barely know" is still more potentially fruitful than "complete strangers", but not enough to invalidate the point.
