System stopped booting with non-latest NVIDIA drivers

Hello everyone, yesterday I performed a sudo pacman -Syu and after reboot my system didn't boot far than lines:
dev/sda2 clean ... or [OK] Reached Internal Graphical Interface (without quit in grub options). I figured out that switching to the latest nvidia drivers fixes the issue (from 535 to 550) and that I'm allowed to boot, but I need specifically the 535 version.

How would I possibly know why am I not allowed to boot with 535 drivers? More specifically, I used this repo https://github.com/Frogging-Family/nvidia-all to switch nvidia driver versions, which worked fine, until I did sudo pacman -Syu. Maybe there's a way to find which package requires newer driver versions and because of that doesn't allow to boot or something? I really don't know in what direction to search here, and my final goal is to boot with 535 drivers. I need to mention that I used to use dkms drivers, but the issue persist with regular version too, open source and proprietary.

OS : Arch Linux x86_64
Kernel : 6.8.9-arch1-2
Packages : 1487 (pacman)
DE : Hyprland
Terminal : kitty
