Why does roll dodge automatically roll backwards now?

I've noticed this for a while now, roll dodge is automatically rolling backwards, rather than forward when there is no directional control.
Maybe it's just me noticing this?

Roll dodge backward used to require legitimate skill to do effectively and now it's not only ezmoad, it's borderline annoying when it goes off by accident doing other tasks.

    Ah, no. It has always been like this.

    IIRC, it is even mentioned in one of the countless loading screen "tips".

    Roll dodge has been bullying players off of high places to their deaths since I can remember. It ignores directions way too often.

    I have noticed dodge roll ignoring direction more often than before, but the default has always been backwards.

    I often roll dodge backwards when scrolling in my inventory. I've only ever noticed rolling backwards though, I don't think it was ever forwards without directional input.

    Interesting hmm. I know it has been doing this to me for a while now but it definitely wasn't always that way for me.
    Perhaps it was then just some sort of control configuration problem on my end.
