They actually made the anti cheat compatible. You just run the exe through wine-ge (I use lutris for that) and it just works. Nothing is modified. Lutris installer also has an installer script that just runs a clean unmodified exe from mihoyo's site.

I've been running it since 3.8 just fine, everything just works in it. Apparently it's been supported since 3.5.

Avoid AnAnimeGame Launcher, that is the launcher where they modify your files, which is completely unnecessary now that it's compatible.

woah, so I could even just add it to steam and use vanilla proton, huh? guess it's time to make space for another couple dozen gigs in my hard drive lol

I wonder if the anticheat actually works that way or it just makes the game think it works.

Probably works that way, because it used to be a kernel level anti cheat which Wine can't fake. If an anti cheat runs in user space (which they should, kernel level is a massive security issue), then it should run with Wine just fine.
