The pair co-founded BioWare in 1995 after earning their medical PhDs. The studio made a name for itself in 1998 with the role-playing game classic Baldur&amp;#039;s Gate, which led to a sequel in 2000 and iconic games including Neverwinter Nights, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Dragon Age and the Mass Effect series.
