What are some /sci/ approved video games or simulators?
For me, it is Orbiter Space Flight Simulator.

Sandbox Universe 2

I haven't tried it myself but a friend who makes professional animations for science museums seemed impressed.

Anyone who plays video games for more than two hours a week is not going to make it.

It's not really intelligent or /sci/ approved or that great of a game but Stellaris actually got me really interested in space so I started studying Cosmology and Astrophysics

Space engine is comfy, you can literally jump between galaxys, walk on a star or observe a black hole. Pic related from the surface of a random planet in the game.

I just want rockets but without the autism of doing all the calculations myself. How fucking hard is that to make you dumbass gay nerds?

Orbiter.
Just pick one of the non-futuristic spacecraft (the shuttle, some real mission...) and learn how to use one of the available MFD navigation programs (transx, IMFD...).

Many real-mission addons include automatic pilots built-in that will perform all the manoeuvres. So you can just sit and watch the spesscraft and the pretty numbers on computers.
