I need a decision

It's not a matter of understanding. It's a matter of good design. I understand that pressing right will turn my character toward their right. I understand that pushing down will make my character walk backward.

But when my character is facing toward the screen, and pressing down and right causes them to walk backward and to the left, that's just retarded.

Especially when so many other games follow certain basics, and then jumping from those games to something like RE is very difficult. It's like spinning around really fast, and then trying to walk a straight line.
