Is he? Where?
Retweeting the question "Black Isles is back! Is this somehow connected to BGEE or might be? http://www.blackisle.com/" and then answering with "Excellent question."
Is he? Where?

Despite having absolutely no information, this Black Isle revival has me more excited than I should be. Wonder if @TrentOster knows things

@TimmyShire I know a few things ;-)
I didn't have a problem with Beamdog's Baldur Gate updates, but I think this is really in poor taste. Make you own name.
As it is, anyone who would actually care about the name will know that it's not really Black Isle, so I'm not sure what this supposed to accomplish.
Interplay probably hasn't got enough money to register the new developer's website.My thoughts exactly. Better to start something new with a new name.
So, first they make DLC for Baldur's Gate II.
Then they say they want to make Baldur's Gate III AND Planescape Torment 2.
And now they take Black Isle's name?
Have they got no shame?
What do they have to be ashamed of?
They want to make two games, some DLC, and name their company.
Is it 'eh'? Sure. But shame has nothing to do with it.
Although none of the people you'd want seem to be involved in this, I'm still curious about the game these people are going to make. I'd forgive them for using the name if this group of nobodies is gonna work on an actual RPG with actual depth to it.

Assuming this is all true, they are using another company's name, success and fanbase to gain popularity and, consequently, making money.
"Our goal has always been"
"Black Isle Studios is back"
Who is saying that? Not Black Isle, that's for sure. And this is lying and dishonesty.
It's like if EA renamed, I dunno, Bioware Mythic "Origin Systems". That's just offensive and in poor taste.
A hundred times this. Herve and the rest are all leeches.Motherfuckers. Crawl into a hole and fucking die already, Interplay.
We are not at this moment affiliated with the new Black Isle Studios
Oster:
Still, this is fucked up.
Interplay? Like, cardboard box sold-the-rights-to-the-fallout-mmo interplay?

Update: When asked for comment, Interplay CEO Hervé Caen told Game Informer, "It is very real indeed."

Should've made a gif for the ME-style dialogue wheel with like 7 pages of more options to answer that question.
I don't think they sold the rights to the MMO, I think they fought(or are fighting?) to keep them
