I have been wanting to play this game since it was announced. However, I prefer single player games. I know this game is designed for 3 players, but I read that they were going to add 2 player and maybe single player support. have they made it any better for us loners? I don't really want to play with randoms either.

EDIT: thanks the input everyone! Looks like I'll be picking up the game at some point since they are balancing the game for different players.

I have been using the hoyoplay launcher for a long time with no issues. I installed it through steam and it ran perfectly until they released the latest update for the launcher. I updated the launcher and now it won't launch through steam, lutris or heroic. In steam, the launcher will popup for a split second then close. In lutris and Heroic launcher it will launch to a black screen. I found that other ppl are having the same issue and some said that I need to install web view 2 through bottles. I installed web view 2 through bottles, I launched hoyoplay launcher in bottles, and finally it works.... Or so I thought. The launcher works properly in bottles, I was able to link my games but when I click start game the launcher will close for a second, then pop back up. It doesn't actually launch the game. I even verified the game files through the launcher but that didn't work. Not sure what to do at this point. I also tried just running the game exe itself but it says it needs the launcher to play..

Other things I've tried is using a variety of different runners in the different launchers - wine, proton etc. I even booted up my windows to go USB drive, installed the launcher, then transferred the files to my Linux PC and no luck

EDIT: I got Genshin Impact to work. The launcher still doesn't work in steam, but I found the right exe that will launch Genshin without the launcher. Go to the install folder "Genshin Impact" then go to the folder "Genshin Impact Game." Launch the Genshinimpact.exe in which ever launcher. It works in steam with proton experimental. So my solution right now is to use bottles to update/install the games then just launch the individual game exe in steam. This works for Genshin and ZZZ. I'm sure it will work for the other games.

All my steam games that support dlss work with it, but my games using the heroic games launcher don't even show the option for DLSS in the game menu. I tried researching it but didn't have too much luck with finding a solution. I found one post saying that proton uses dlss by default, I'm using proton experimental but it still doesn't show up.

Heroic launcher is nice but I have had such a hard time enabling features like dlss and mangohud on it.

I'm using Linux mint 22.1.

EDIT: I fixed the issue. There is an option in heroic called "auto install/update DXVK-NVAPI on prefix" I had to enable it in the global settings and on the specific game. DLSS works now with frame gen.

I still have yet to get mangohud working with heroic tho

EDIT 2: I got mangohud to work with heroic. I had to use version 23.08

Looking for recommendations for good ear protection during concerts. I want ear buds that don't just muffle all the sound but limit higher unsafe frequencies while allowing you to still enjoy the music. I did a search and came up with a bunch of different kinds and varying reviews on amazon, I also asked my friend who is in the live audio business and he said I needed custom molded IEMs but that seemed a little over kill for me, even if it's the best way.

This Site shows the common ones I've seen.

Thanks!

EDIT: thanks everyone for the reaponses, I will go through and look at each of the recommended solutioms works best for me.
