The first book I'm working on is called Odyssey of the Dragonlords. I'm working on it with another former Creative Director from BioWare - Jesse Sky. Plus a mystery writer that I've worked with before 😉 x.com/arcanumworlds/…

The most fun I've ever had at BioWare was as the lead designer on Baldur's Gate 1+2 and NWN. I've been a D&D fanatic since I was 10 years old and I want to be a part of it again. Please visit arcanumworlds.com to see what I'm talking about.
After 22 years I have retired from BioWare. I've loved my time with Anthem, Star Wars, Dragon Age and Dungeons and Dragons. But I need to take a break from the industry and work on something a little smaller and more personal.
My D&D campaign is down a player. Anyone living in Austin who is interested should message me...

@JamesOhlen Hey i heard abut your resignation and while i havent seen other works thank you so much for all the work you have put into Kotor and Swtor as ive been raised on those games. May The Force Be With you friend
@JamesOhlen Sounds pretty awesome. I wish you the best of luck :) I'm not a fan of fifth edition myself, however, I still wish you all the best.
@JamesOhlen It is! I’m doing very well. Still a lawyer and still making games in my spare time. (Not as much of that as there was in olden finds, alas.)
@JamesOhlen Just wanted to say, thank you for all of your great work. BG 1&2 are more special to me than I can articulate. Wish you best in whatever comes next!
Best wishes to @JamesOhlen! gamespot.com/videos/22-year…
@JamesOhlen Well this is exciting! Absolutely love Greek myths, so hearing that this world is based on them... yes please.
@JamesOhlen Thanks for all your work! Every game you've made has been an inspiration and a masterpiece
Ever wonder what @JamesOhlen - the genius behind #BaldursGate, #NeverwinterNights, #KOTOR and #DragonAge - is up to now? Check it out here: arcanumworlds.com
@JamesOhlen Best of luck with everything moving forward. Would love to get an interview with you about your time in the industry looking back on it if you were ever keen!
@JamesOhlen Dragon Age is such an important part of my life, and was the first RPG I actually got invested in emotionally. Thank you for contributing to the team effort that made this possible, and glad you're taking care of yourself. Super excited at the chance of you joining us Indies 🤓
@JamesOhlen A sad day for Bioware but many thanks to you.
@JamesOhlen I just wanted to thank you for your creations. NWN was the first "real" game I ever played, and it has given me an undying love of D&D. The Hordes of the Underdark expansion has me HUGELY excited for the new Waterdeep adventures coming this year!
Sad to hear that the legend behind some of my favourite games has left Bioware, but super hyped he's collaborating on #dnd material!! @JamesOhlen good luck dude! Can't wait! pcgamer.com/baldurs-gate-l…
@JamesOhlen Here I am, thinking that my next campaign should have an Ancient Greek setting but using a different system (d100 instead of D&D d20). I guess I'm stuck with another D&D campaign now 😆 Any chance to release content that is system agnostic?
@JamesOhlen @Sly_Nation Last time I was DMing... a wyvern could reverse itself in flight AND attack in the same round, and I had 6 people rolling for independent initiative to attempt retrieving a jewel adorned arrow stuck in its wing. Rock on dude and forever gaming✌🏼️

The first book I'm working on is called Odyssey of the Dragonlords. I'm working on it with another former Creative Director from BioWare - Jesse Sky. Plus a mystery writer that I've worked with before 😉 x.com/arcanumworlds/…
