Hi y'all, it's me Master. To those who know me on this sub, it's been awhile hasn't it?

To everyone, here's a silly little request of mine.

It was not something I'd have considered doing a long time ago, not since I got my job in 2017. Before then, I was rather active on the sub, mostly on discussions, though I have gotten a few games off this place, most notably Just Cause 3 as a pre-order. Now don't go judging me, frendos, I don't regret that game one bit. Just see my playtime on it, 77 hours.

But that's not why I'm here. Since you've (hopefully) read the title, I'm here hoping to get a copy of the Most Wanted complete DLC bundle.

To be honest, I've been debating between this and the 2010 Hot Pursuit for some time now. I love both games (played Hot Pursuit during my pirate days, not too proud of those times) and they've helped me through some hard times, but I'm not here to sob story you into boredom.

Let's get into it

What is the Bundle?

The bundle is basically EA's way of saying "fuck you" to its players a collection of about 20 cars and a bunch of events in Most Wanted. The DLC's page says this:

Fill your garage with 20 of the hottest cars Need For Speed has to offer with these four DLC packs: Ultimate Speed, Terminal Velocity, Movie Legends and NFS Heroes. Each pack comes with an elite vehicle that can only be gotten by winning its Most Wanted one-on-one race:

Hennessey Venom GT Spyder

Porsche 918 Spyder 2013

Shelby Mustang GT500 1967

BMW M3 GTR

Race, drift, and smash your way through Hughes International Airport to play all-new events, including the Drift Attack and Smash & Grab modes. Blazing-fast multiplayer Speedlists await to test your skills against up to seven other online players. Compete in Challenges, Speed Tests and Team Races to rocket to the top of the leaderboards and garner as many Tickets as possible.

Now I'll be honest with y'all, I have no love for multiplayer games. I've played them, yes, but you won't find much, if any playtime, on multiplayer games from me (mostly because my internet sucks balls), but apart from that, the DLC bundle offers me a ton of cars I would just love to drive and rip through Fairhaven. The base game is certainly enjoyable by itself, but it just feels incomplete knowing I have cars sitting in the city I can't drive because they're locked to me.

Why can't I get it myself?

Here's we come to the crux of the matter: why ask?. I'll continue my streak of honesty and admit I have no money.

But I have a job! Yes I do, a job that pays me a fair bit given my experience and expertise. I make anywhere between US $373 to US $425 (converted from my local currency) a month depending on how much work I take on and how much pending payments I have. It's a comfortable pay for a single guy, but not a lot when you have rent and EMIs to take care of, and when those are done, I'm left with a mere $60, enough to get me a month's travel and some Subway once in a while. Adulting is hard and getting yourself recognized for a raise is harder, but I think (or rather, hope) that I've made some headway over the last few months.

And that's it. I can't write any more of this request, except at the risk of sounding like someone who belongs to r/choosingbeggars. I probably already do a little bit and I'm not proud of that. Since I've had this job, I've lived on a policy of not taking on anyone's economic help. Call me a petty prideful bastard but I've learned to be happy with what I have and generally refuse economic help from others, especially if they ask me to remind them of it later. It just feels wrong.

But here I am, asking for help. My desire to play the game in its full glory has overtaken my hopes of shutting the hell up and being happy with what I am. I know many of you are facing a situation like mine, or perhaps worse, but I'm hoping there's someone who can help.

Here's the Origin page of the DLC

Unfortunately my search for alternate legal sources of the DLC turned up dust. Forgive me.
