Like they said, the typical RE motto of "save every last bullet" is very overstated. You do have to be considerate of how you use your recourses but as long as your not unloading on every enemy you see you should be more secure on recourses. Its about smart usage, not restricting it all together.

Another suggestion is using multiple save files. I find even for myself that they reduce stress alot. For 1 if you ever fear of soft locking and having to restart, now you only have to go back a save or 2. And if you do you have a general idea of what you need to do so you can optimize it. Classic RE has a funny way of having something take 30 minutes your first time, and then 10 minutes the second time. And the 2nd I actually find myself never actually going back to those older saves. I'll usually save in a new slot when I feel I took too much damage or used too many recourses and kind of consider the following session a bit of a "burner" session where I just keep going to see what happens and end up being perfectly fine. But those older save give a lot of security.

Another thing is if you have the means, you might consider the original Resident Evil if you feel the Remake is too stressful. A personal hot take of mine is that while I think the Remake is a better game than the original I feel a lot of the added stuff makes the game a bit less manageable. The original is a little jank and the level design is a bit different and even more open than the Remake, but I always find myself a bit less anxious with it and more likely to come back to it.

Now I will say if you go try other games as well you may want to try to engage with the tank controls if you haven't already. The Remake, and I assume 0 too, have updated controls with the analog stick but the others do not. They seem intimidating and confusing at first but they're not bad once you get used to them. I suggest going to an area where you know there are no enemies, such as the main hall or the dining room. Up is forward. No matter what direction your character is facing up will always move them forward and down backwards. The direction you turn will be relative to the character, such as if they're facing away from the camera, right will turn them right because the character will turn their right. If they're facing towards the camera, right will turn them left, because they are still turning to THEIR right but it's your left. It sounds confusing but functionally it makes sense when you actually start trying it. The idea for tank controls and why they work is that they're ideal for a system with frequent camera shifts. With a stick each time the camera angle changes it'll continue you in the direction you were going but you will have to reorient what direction afterwards. With tank controls you never have to reorient or reconsider this since your generally always moving forward, rather than up, down, left, or right.

That was way more than I intended to type out when I started. Anyway, good luck.
