If I leave the boot as normal, I get a "Oh no something has gone wrong" screen and I cannot do anything there change terminals with CTRL+ALT+F(1-N) keys.

That error message is unique to Gnome. Consider booting to a CLI and using yum (or dnf) to install a different DE, then reboot and log into that DE instead. You'll still be using gdm as your greeter so if you get that error message before you log in, you'll know that the trouble is either with gdm itself or one of its dependencies. If you can log in, you'll be fairly sure that there's something wrong with Gnome on your system. How you track it down and fix it, of course, depends on just what happens, but this will at least give you a usable system with a working GUI until things get straightened out.
