As someone that plays Genshin, it actually runs fine through proton funnily enough. Honkai Star Rail on the other hand…

Main issue with that is that it requires bypassing the anti cheat which can get people banned. There aren't many reports of this so most say it's not really common, but bans do happen from Hoyo for doing so on the Steam Deck; there was a post on the Steam Deck reddit a while back with somebody who got banned on Star Rail for it even though they had got it running as well as Genshin. Was pretty rough, they quit all Hoyo games because of it even though they were a whale.

I wouldn't risk it myself for that reason, so I've always played it on Windows. Though, since I use my Deck as my main computer, I'm most often in Windows since so much software I need either barely works or is broken on SteamOS.
