Why don't you just wait until you actually play the game, or at least the demo of it?

The game will also feature characters and events which do not necessarily operate on a timetable entirely based around your character. Like in The Last Express, there will sometimes be things to observe that depend on your being in a particular place at a particular time. Unlike in that game, these things will never be essential in Dreamfall, and you'll never (ever) find yourself stuck because you didn't get somewhere in time. They are purely for the purposes of added backstory and setting.

This is EXACTLY one of the things I've been wanting for adventure games, the awareness (no matter how illusive) that the world is alive, breathing, and functioning all around you whether you're around or not. It adds to the immersion by allowing you to think,
Somewhere around the corner, high above, down below, life moves on. And when you do stumble on little events - other characters chatting, a scene - they can only serve to enrich and deepen your sense of place.
