Coubter-strike was a mod to Half Life. Then Valve employed the developers to help make the Source engine.
Desert Combat was a mod for Battlefield 1942, then DICE hired the developers to make Battlefield 2.
Zombie mode was a mod for Call of Duty, then Activision stole it and promoted it as their own.
Since then almost all publishers have prevented modding in games.
Bethesda is still pretty good at allowing people to mod their games. I hope this continues into the future ๐
