Ok small update on that song project:
I'm thinking about going the Stratovarius/Sonata Artica way of doing the song structure instead of most other power metal songs, especially that it's more video game style. Normally, power metal music is like this:
Intro
Verse 1
Pre-chorus
Verse 2
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Solo (verse melody)
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Ending
I will do this instead:
Intro
Verse 1
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Verse 2
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Solo (verse melody and pre-chorus)
Chorus
Ending
Due to the video game ish nature of this style, I felt it may sound ordered better in overall.
I also thought about adding a longer intro part with no drums so the song won't start as abruptly, but then it would be much harder to integrate in a video game for anything else than a boss fight.
