If you’re looking to play anime gacha games on the Steam Deck, then I highly recommend getting dwproton. This community made a fork of the Proton layer that focuses on including a bunch of early fixes for these games. Recently, they pushed out patches to help with Wuthering Waves, but with this one, we get some fixes for the newly released Aniimo and Goddess of Victory: NIKKE.
This new update brings all of its components to the latest bleeding-edge Proton Experimental update, but it also includes some fixes. Aniimo will no longer crash in the lobby menu, while Goddess of Victory: NIKKE will no longer get an ACE (anti-cheat) error after its latest update.
The Proton layer can be downloaded via ProtonPlus, which can be downloaded through the Discover Store in Desktop Mode on the Steam Deck.
