Recaptcha is constantly evolving and the image distortion algorithm changes every once in a while to keep fooling bots. They used to draw a line though the word a while back, then they used very little obfuscation, now they have circles. The whole point of a Captcha is to obfuscate text, so yes, it is hard to read sometimes.

Here's a list of things you can customize. Using another obfuscation algorithm is not among the options. So there's not much you can do about it besides using a different Captcha.
