Why aren't there any sea based races in vidya besides Naga?

Usually because they're sea based. As in, they live in the sea

Giving them legs and/or the ability to breath on the surface detracts from them being sea based

Make a Deep Sea RPG. Then you can have all the shark people and mermaids and giant psychic octopi and dolphin rapists you want

Like most 4chan projects it was all ideas guys, a few artists and no programmers.

Incompetence, indecisiveness and competition for ideas ultimately killed it.

Essentially, you can't make a game using general threads.

Sharks are basically the dogs of the sea.

They bite shit to find out what it is, terrorize small animals on instinct and will leave humans alone (unless they impede on their territory.) They also like being pet in certain places as demonstrated.
>>
>>320693526
From what I heard, they feed on LIVE sponges. The sponges feeds on micro-organism which is impossible to maintain for a small aqualium.

nudibranchs species have extremely varied diet, some just eat algae, some eat sponges, some eat other nudibranchs. There are more nudis in reef tanks than there where five years ago, but many species that you see very commonly are those with extremely specialized diets. Pic related is the most common nudi found in aquaria, and they feed off algae. A lot of it.

Also, most sponges available to hobbyists are often non-photosynthetic, meaning they feed on micro-organisms, which oftentimes means that the person caring for the tank must feed a solution containing those organisms regularly, and because those organisms then die off and pollute the tank, killing everything in it.

Because everyone fucking hates water levels, and sea based races may involve you needing to go to a water level.
>>
>>320695856
This, to make a good water-based race you need a deep water place, and to get that going well, you would need to make the entire animation sets and enemies and shit. Too much work, too little potential reward. This is the reason all of these sentient water/elemental/alien races are basically just humans but blue or with horns.
