Anyone who complains about the aggressiveness of Awesome Mod's story engine clearly hasn't used one of the others :p

So you know I don't just complain:

1) Supreme Commander
  1a. My Sims leave the home lot!
  1b. My Sims use the moodlet manager!
  1c. My Sims auto-complete opportunities like teaching a class at the school, or cleaning out the bug cage...
  1d. My Sims auto-repair stuff that breaks!

2) Story Engine is well balanced. I've used others that have some *very* nice features but they tend to be over aggressive to the point where everyone in my town is married and the active Sims have to break someone up just to get some action

3) Fixall rocks my world.

There are many other things (add your own) but those are some of my favorites.
