I think TwoPersonLoveTriangle is the supertrope. LovesMyAlterEgo is specifically when someone falls in love with a SecretIdentity, while TwoPersonLoveTriangle also covers cases where the person is not actually trying to conceal their identity (due to MistakenIdentity or other confusion), or is unaware that the \\\"third party\\\" is actually themselves (as in some of the ArrangedMarriage versions), or is physically split into two copies (time travel, cloning, what-have-you), or has two (or more) rival personas that occupy the same body but do not consider themselves the same person, etc.

* AnticlimaxBoss: The Shagohod. Since the MGS series \\\"tactical reload\\\" GameBreaker is in full effect (deselect and reselect a weapon to instantly reload it), what\\\'s probably supposed to be a nerve-wracking battle against a powerful foe turns into spamming a perminantly immobilised vehicle to death with infinite RPG-7 rounds, then shooting an overacting man in the head a handful of times with a sniper rifle.
I disagree because the entire sequence is one of the most awesome moments I\\\'ve ever experienced as a gamer. It\\\'s a fifteen minute chase scene that keeps you on the edge of your seat, and the fight unfolds in multiple, equally exciting stages.
Also, the Shagohod is at no point immobilized. Volgin drives it around the arena trying to smash you with it whenever he\\\'s not firing machine guns and rockets at you. He also blocks bullets from the front and pivots faster than you can get behind him, so if you were able to snipe him then you\\\'re either using black magic or some other method that I haven\\\'t discerned.
Besides which, none of that fits the definition of the trope. Just because a battle is easy to you does not mean it qualifies for this. An AntiClimaxBoss occurs when the game sets up an epic encounter and fails to execute it properly, whether an individual player thinks it\\\'s easy or not. Thinking of the entire battle in terms of that one stage may be what\\\'s causing you to believe that, but I disagree completely. The rockets only serve to slow it down for most of the battle, and what finally kills Volgin is a bolt of lightning that causes all the bullets on his body to go off at once. I don\\\'t see how anything in the presentation of the fight is anti-climactic.
