Power metal guys don't try to look scary and serious. They are mostly just having fun.

That's goofy nupower metal like Gloryhammer. Power metal from around 2000 and before was serious in the "We're heroes of legend, let us kill." kind of way.

Too many flashy solos, orchestra bits and high register vocals.

Find me a game that matches this energy. It's not possible.

I honestly think it would sell a lot too. It's a pretty popular genre of music.
>>
Blade of Darkness is an excellent game if you pick the Barbarian and play some Manowar. Though generally I'd say the game is too dark in tone for most power metal to work.
>>
>>729886268
Helloween were always a pretty poppy band, but I don't think most people think any actual music artists are "scary"
>>
>>729886459
Beyond just having the music it'd need the aesthetics too, which shouldn't be too hard but in reality I doubt it'd avoid looking like a mobile game unless the developers are real enthusiasts.
