Love Like Fire

Love Like Fire is a main job in and functions as the introduction to Johnny Silverhand and interlude between Act 1 and Act 2.

Walkthrough
You'll be sent back in time to Johnny Silverhand's memories on August 20th, 2023, where you'll mostly just be walking towards objectives with a few interactions as the game flickers between memories. Eventually you'll join Rogue on a helicopter that then sets off to attack Arasaka Tower.

Shortly after, Shaitan goes down so you'll need to take over the machine gun. Once all the enemies are cleared out, Johnny reveals a bomb that the group plans to set off to destroy the tower. With that, you'll now need to shoot your way through the stairwell and the first floor you come to. Once done, plant the bomb in the elevator then exit and shoot the elevator cables to make it crash to the bottom.

However, Johnny has another plan he wants to execute while here: to upload a message to the subnet. Once Rogue clears it, head through the door here and take out more guards as you make your way up to the access point. As you upload it, you'll be diverted to the TV for a bit about what's going on at the tower. Once done, make your way to the other doors only to be knocked back as Adam Smasher blasts through before the game flickers forward to escaping to the helicopter. Shortly after another cutscene will play as it flickers forward a few times before you find yourself being questioned by some of Arasaka's people. Answer however you wish then Saburo Arasaka and a woman show up and after some small dialogue, initiate the Soulkiller program on Johnny.

Journal Entry

 * It often happens that our memories are superseded by people's stories. Someone presents us a beginning, middle and an end, and soon enough we start believing that we really were there - that WE did all those things. But who we are is built on the past, and the past is built on lies.
