I wish it made me feel better like I always want it to, but I don't know why it just makes me feel worse.

Maybe it's because most of the animals I'm finding are introduced and invasive. So many slugs and snails that damage everything and are from different continents.

I got really happy when I found a couple of snails that might've been native, but all the common invasive garden snails there are just so many of them. I know I can't bring myself to kill them because I've tried in the past and it makes me feel so sick and guilty. And I can't think of any animal to give all the snails to (because I'm okay with feeding invasives to pet invasive spiders or mantises I keep specifically to prevent them from breeding, and to have a "more useful" way of getting rid of invasive small arthropods).

Snails and slugs are so hard to find predators for, and that's probably why they're so prolific. I know I could maybe have a leopard slug to help me, where I keep it contained and collect invasive molluscs for it, but if in doing so I decrease the population of leopard slugs (even though they're introduced), then NZ doesn't have any mollusc-eating molluscs to re-replace the leopard slugs.

I also am worried about giving any birds or mammals parasites by giving molluscs to them, because even if the birds/mammals are introduced, it will continue the cycle of hosts for the parasites, and i don't want that. I could give the molluscs to fish in a river, maybe keep 1 wild invasive fish to feed molluscs to, but you see how ridiculous all of this thinking is.

I am wondering if people feel this stressed as I feel, or at least the same type of stress. Even all the earthworms, centipedes, millipedes, woodlice, and skinks in gardens are introduced and replacing the native ones. And it really feels like we as a species will never get on top of this, and that there will always be introduced animals in every continent. But i don't want to sound so hopeless.

Playing the first version of the first game (not director's cut). I've finished ps1 RE2 and RE3, and ps2 RECVX and RE4. I'm probably anxious for nothing, but I'm a but low on healing items when i used to have a quite a lot a few hours earlier in my game. Same with ammo. I'm at the part where you revisit the mansion, and I've used the code to unlock the door on the 2nd floor. I have maybe 6 green herbs left. Also have 3 shotgun rounds, and 27 handgun rounds left. I still have the bazooka and the magnum though.

edit: i know this is a very basic question, but for some reason it's such a pain trying to find as much discussion on the 1996 first release of resident evil, so much that comes up are the remakes or the director's cut which aren't as helpfeul 'cause they're respectively either a different game, or the item/enemy placement is different.

I'm playing as Jill! i forgot to say

I'm playing the first game. I'm on night 3, and I opened the door locked with a code in room "Walkway". When I was investigating the room, I heard the sounds/music of a ghost present. I couldn't remember which ghost's theme it was, though, and I couldn't hear the ghost itself saying anything.

I waited for it and it never showed up, so I ended up just running away and then the usual ambience started playing and I could save at save points. I've been playing for a few hours more, and every time I had to go through the walkway, that ghost's music would start playing again, but it wouldn't show up. I could still run away and save, though.

But now, after going to the Grand Hall and defeating the Master of the House for the 2nd time and getting the Master's Seal for the Moon Shrine, I went back into the Walkway, had the "knock knock" sound effect at the gap in the wall, picked up the stone mirror there. Then the mystery ghost's music started playing AGAIN, so I waited a bit then ran away because as usual the ghost was nowhere to be detected with my camera's light or the dualshock controller. But now I'm running all over the place to different save points, and I cannot save! They're all red no matter how far away I am from the Walkway.

If I find out what ghost the music in the Walkway belongs to, I'll update this post. If there is no solution, or if this has never happened to anyone else before, then I'll try to find one myself. Either by running all over the place, placing the Master's Seal, or just restarting my PS2.

tl;dr: ghost is stuck in wall and i can't photograph it, and no matter how far away I run, it won't let me save. It has been stuck in the same room's wall for a few hours now, but i used to be able to just run away and then the game would act like the ghost was gone and i could save. Now i can't.
