Orbiter is not really a game. Its UI is terrible, it’s full of complexity, all that. Now, that’s all fine for a simulator, but not for a game.
If you want a game that gives you better feedback and a much better UI and much more laser-focused prioritization of what’s actually important and essential to putting space travel in a game, then you want KSP.
Orbiter to KSP is like Garry’s Mod (only less accessible and even less of a game) to Minecraft.
Comparing the two doesn’t even make that much sense. You get vastly different things out of them.

(Also, it’s arguably more beautiful to look at.)
