You mean the pose itself? I do agree somewhat, it looks like something out of a cheap porn movie. But as much as I myself would like to see the scene changed; like at least putting high-heels on Octavia's feet to add some elegance to the pose, I really doubt that the developers can afford to redo visuals that already have been made.The Octavia scene in the latest update really did not live up to the hype. The art in that scene felt so jarring and out of place with the rest of the game. It feels very... coarse, and not soft & dreamy like every other sex scene. Maybe it'll benefit from a slight re-design.
Besides, I have to admit that the pose does correspond to the accompanying text, which describes a routine sex act between a professional prostitute and her client, as I put it earlier. While I don't think the situation itself fits Octavia's personality, the chosen pose does fit a "sex worker does her job while showing off her body for the camera" style.
One final thought - I would rather disagree that sex scenes in corruption routes (be it with Octavia or other characters) should be as soft as in the romantic routes. I believe that unlike romantic routes, where scenes should show us two people in love pleasuring each other, in the corruption routes MC should take more pro-active and, perhaps, even dominating role, being concerned only about his own pleasure - at the expense of his partner. After all, MC that goes to corruption path is not a good guy. And that assertiveness of his should be shown both in text and in chosen poses. Good examples would be the rough doggy-style with Claudia at restaurant's restroom (dominating pose) and Karen's deep throating (both dominating pose and dominating dialogue).
