As someone who writes for a living, and uses writing as a creative outlet, I find Rarity to be a very relateable character.

Rarity has a dream. She wants to be a fashion designer in Canterlot. She has the skills to make that dream happen.

But things hold her back. Herself. Her generosity. Her dramatic everything.

Part of being creative is the critique you get. You can love your own work, you can think you did an amazing, stellar job, but your public will hate it. After all "All we really like is what we know".

It's hard trying to be creative. It's harder when you're a nobody and no one supports you. You may have talent, but you're stuck in some random town trying to carve out a living. You may be the son of a CEO, but have no ambition or talent.

And she's funny. Drama is funny. I have this every so veeeery slight tendency to be the tiniest bit dramatic.

Relateability is an important aspect in a character. Pinkie may be my second favorite of the main cast, but she isn't that relateable.

Neither is Fluttershy. Sorry, she's cute and I love her, but she's very one dimensional.
To be honest, I'm not gonna lie to you guys, but yes. She reminds me the most of myself in this current state. And that's the one and only thing I gotta say about her that isn't mean.
And yes, I do stretch my hatred for her...however if she's gonna be an op character for fighting is magic, the rage is going to shoot that far.

However, I would just love to see more character development from her, fluttershy and by a mudslide, RD. The characters are kinda underdeveloped in my opinion...but what do I know, I'm not a critic, nor do I have the right makings of one, or the right backing...etc etc etc.

Yes, Fluttershy is completely One-Dim, and tipping the scale by just a smudge is gonna tip the entire thing over. I suppose she needs to find balance...even if it's cannon, can we see more?

Rarity...well, more sister-ly, and less snoody, regardless of her standards. Her views of "fun" may be completely off from her friends, but come on. Again, it's cannon, but MORE please.

I may love RD to a extent, where I'll worship her to the ends of the earth, even IF I stretch my love for her way too far than needed, she needs to admit a whole lot of things...even if they're cannon also. (Winning isn't everything, Acting girly isn't SO bad. Take a look at Rarity. Trying new things is also not that bad...wait, nevermind, Read It And Weap kinda justifies that...And being too proud of yourself...wait, Mysterious Mare-do-well counteracts that reason also...)

...
Okay, I don't know what I'm talking about anymore...Been sleep deprived. *Thud*
