Next Model Poll - 2026 Return

It's time for a comeback! After a bit of a hiatus, it's time to bring the polls back along with a few new changes for 2026. The polls were originally paused due to IRL workload and while not much has changed on that front, I've been needing some inspiration for what to do as Oni Project models so what better way than to have a vote on what model to port next.

I'll go through the main changes below - I've only thought on this over the last couple of days so February will be a bit of a test for these and I may tweak them later. Even so, I thought it best to make a post now to give some advance notice so people can find a model they may want to nominate.

What's the same?

• Enthusiast, Aficionado, and Fanatic tiers will be able to nominate models they want ported in the discord. Request rules remain the same.

• All tiers will be able to vote in the polls. Tier weighting remains with each higher tier being worth a 2x, 3x, and 5x points as before.

• A preliminary vote will decide which models make the Top 3 for the Finals.

What's changed?

• The poll will now be to decide the next Oni Projects model.

• The preliminary results will now be provided as text rather than added to the image collage.

That's all for now! The #model-requests channel will open in February for nominations. If I make any changes to the above before then, i'll post in the discord or at the start of the month with the launch models.
