Rey has no time to realistically develop as a character because she is too busy saying stuff like “You’re Han Solo! You made the Kessel run in 12 parsecs”

Part of that scene was there to establish that the whole history of the OT is not set in stone. The Galaxy can’t come to a consensus as to Han Solo is. So imagine what else from there are merely regarded as legend or just hyperbole. For me it added depth to the universe in a far more effective way the PT did. Also I feel she was developed plenty. We know that she loyal almost to a fault. She didn’t sell BB-8 regardless of just meeting it while 60 portions is staring her right in the face. this is coupled with the fact that she yearns to get off Jakku to the point in which she marks her wall for every day she is there before her family returns. And later in the film when she is offered a job from Han she declines it simply for her devotion she has for her family who she doesn’t even know. Not only that but seeing as how she lives her life that she has had a very lonely and brutal one. Considering her combat prowess in she probably got beat up a lot while she was a kid and most likely had to steal among other sketchy activities to survive before she became a scavenger. And even though she had gotten the short end of the stick she still managed to come out compassionate even though she had a seemingly hard exterior in her first scene with BB-8. Seeing her reaction to the Force Flashback and knowing that The Force is calling to her fills her with fear. Fear of her competence, fear of abandoning her family for they might come back one day and she feared Kylo Ren greatly at that point. And when she called up on The Force and was able to defeat a wounded and mentally unstable Kylo Ren she saw her potential and embraced her destiny.

If I think about it more I could probably remember some other things I noted about Rey while watching the film, but if there’s anyone who wasn’t fully fleshed out it was Poe.
