The video explores what Minecraft would be like if it were rated for adults only, like Grand Theft Auto 5. The game's creator, Notch, had more adult ideas for the game, including a "Hell" dimension and more violent content. In this alternate universe, the game would feature realistic enemies, such as crocodiles and sharks, and more explicit violence, including blood and gore. Players could also interact with villagers in a more realistic way, and the game would include more mature themes, such as substance use and toxic relationships. However, this would come at the cost of Minecraft's educational programs and its appeal to a younger audience. The video concludes that Minecraft's success lies in its ability to balance fun and complexity for both adults and children, and that an adult-only version would likely not be as popular.
