I can't login into my desktop

I run my arch on gnome and was updating the system. The system froze during update, I tried waiting but nothing worked so I used the power button to turn it completely off. When I tried loging in it started giving me :- https://imagebin.ca/v/7zErQblLuBss
Now I went through guides online they said using Ctrl alt f2 etc but that didn't work. Other said to use live iso and use mount and chroot so went and did that, I couldn't do it at first and faced various problems but atlast I successfully did and one command updated the system.
mount /dev/nvme0n1p2/mnt
mount /dev/Nvme0n1p2 /mnt/boot
arch-chroot/mnt
Pacman -Syu
I was trying to use commands to mount and chroot but I couldn't go pass the second command, idk why after trouble shooting I used this command
pacstrap /mnt base linux linux-firmware
And it triggered an update and after the update I tried
Arch-chroot/mnt
And Pacman -Syu
And rebooted and the problem is still there
This is the picture commands I did after trying again
https://imagebin.ca/v/7zF8WaXU0vW4
All of this but the problem at the top still persists

I have important data on the drive, If I couldn't recover the system I would still want the data from the drive. If you know how to solve this kindly help me or help me to recover my data, thanks.
