Regarding game performance on arch (or any based arch distro), use wine-cachyos(aur package or wine-ge if u want) instead of the default wine (from extra packages), and if u can, delete the default wine prefix (~/.wine) so it will create a new one once u try to start the game. The default "Launch Arguments" for the "Play" button on the launcher will use the system wine and default wine prefix, u can modify it to use even a bash script or a specific wine prefix on the turtle wow launcher settings...

Like: WINEPREFIX="/path/to/your/prefix" wine /path/to/your/program.exe

the default is: wine $WoW.exe$

Use the full path to avoid problems...

I just seem to end up with a empty white window.

Game performance is terrible, don't know why

I updated the package to add webkit2gtk-4.1 as a dependency

install webkit2gtk-4.1 on your system

error while loading shared libraries: libwebkit2gtk-4.1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory

I am getting the error above when running this on a fresh system.

This is just the turtle wow launcher for Linux, you either run this with the applications launcher(clicking the icon) or run on the terminal with "turtle-wow" command.
