If your goal is general CAD drafting without the specific need for native DGN compatibility, consider powerful open-source tools like:
For those who cannot afford a license, high-quality, legal open-source alternatives exist: Microstation V8i 64bit Crack
Bentley no longer sells new perpetual licenses for MicroStation V8i specifically, but:

Cracks often work by modifying the software’s Dynamic Link Libraries (DLLs). This can lead to instability. Imagine working weeks on a complex 3D model only for the software to crash and corrupt the file because the bypass mechanism interfered with a save function. 3. Legal and Professional Liability Using cracked software ultimately harms the ecosystem that
Bentley completely rebuilt the software for the CONNECT Edition to natively support 64-bit processing, allowing it to utilize unlimited system memory for massive datasets.
Software piracy has a negative economic impact on the industry, leading to job losses and reduced funding for future development. Using cracked software ultimately harms the ecosystem that creates and supports the professional tools your industry depends on.
Remember: If you can't afford to license a software tool, you can't afford the consequences of using it illegally.
