I know she is set up for the trilogy hero role, but she might swerve everyone and go all Sephiroth. She seems the perfect candidate for eventual arrogance and someone having to put her down. And *then* the argument would shift from her being "OP", to "why did the girl have to die?" or somesuch. Or maybe she even is initially blind to her descent, like Luke seemed to be, and also eventually loses a limb. Maybe a leg, though. Make it different.
I think she will be Kylo's redemption when all is said and done and both will start a New Jedi Academy. If this trilogy is to mirror the original in certain aspects than some bad things are bound to happen leaving it up to Kylo, Finn, Chewie ( if he makes it through 8 ) and Poe to save the day and Rey in Episode 9.
