Strange small history

Hello! I had strange issue with Arch.

So I download the game from Steam then I decide to update the system sudo pacman -Syu and after downloading the packages something strange, in Steam there is an error writing to disk and after re-using the command it had an address error (IO), I was think my NVMe SSD is died, the desktop disappeared, I closed steam and a black screen with a cursor, I try to go to TTY but I can't go in, I reboot the PC, the OS loaded but I can't go to the account, I go to TTY to root, I update the password, all the same. Then I booted Live CD to fix this system. There was issue with pacman database (lock file) and packages, 'plasma' package was not detected and I updated repository links using 'reflector' then I decided to update the system again, the same packages were for updates as last time, but it wrote about broken packages and PGP signatures, I deleted the old downloaded packages and signatures then I rebooted to main system and my user account now works.

What you will say, devs?

Arch discussion is simply the wrong topic for a system related issue discussion, and there's nothing actable in your original post. If you have no issue anymore, chalk it up to a freak accident and be happy your system works and mark this as [SOLVED]

If you want to actually look at what happened, maybe share a journal of the faulty boot.
