Issues installing GTA V via lutris on fresh arch install

I'm trying to install the lutris install script for gta v (rockstar launcher version), but the installer is stuck at "preparing to install". The main thing that bugs me out though, is the fact that it just keeps filling up my memory until my pc freezes.

Try using bottles

Because it’s installed by flatpak, wine will just work no matter the distro

Tried bottles, had the same issue. In the end, i found out that trying to install the rockstar games launcher left some kind of auto updater on my system. I ran it, and it just installed the launcher.
