Former Halo 4 developer Dan Callan shared a story about a meeting with former Xbox boss Don Mattrick that still surprises him.
According to Callan, Mattrick wanted Halo 4 to copy Diablo 3โs real-money auction house by selling campaign mech skins for real money, even though Diablo 3โs system was already receiving backlash and was later removed by Blizzard.
Looking back, Callan said, โGame execs remain st*pid, detached, money-grubbing id*ots,โ adding that everyone in the room reacted with, โYeah! Great idea, sir,โ even though the developers knew it wasnโt.
