The world of live streaming hits some incredible highs, but also manages to reach crazy lows. We're not quite sure where the above stream sits on the scale, but one thing we can say with certainty is that people are very excited for Red Dead Redemption 2.

This Australian streamer is broadcasting the pre-order countdown timer for Rockstar's latest open world epic, and what's more, hundreds of people are watching. It's perhaps the most sedate gaming live stream possible, yet plenty of folks are happily tuning in and shooting the breeze while the streamer waits for midnight local time. Fair enough?

We're only teasing, of course -- having hundreds of viewers for a stream isn't out of the ordinary. However, that normally applies to gameplay, not a countdown timer. We at least share the hype with these people, so more power to them.
