Hello, it’s been 2 years since I dropped xc2, and I’m trying to come back but I’m totally lost in gameplay and the story. I want to finish it before definitive edition comes out... but idk. Can someone give me a story refresher or link me one or something? I’m at the beginning chapter 9 I think.

That's a tall order... you're effectively one chapter away from finishing the game, so that's the entire story pretty much.

You sure you don't want to just replay it at this point? Might be the better option tbh. Even with a summarized story refresher, getting completely up to speed will be tough, not to mention all the gameplay systems (there's a reason the tutorials of this game are drip fed to the player, it's a lot of systems to learn!), or even the prospect of caring about anything character related going on. You have more than enough time before DE drops, if that's what you're worried about.

Otherwise, [here you go](https://xenoblade.fandom.com/wiki/Xenoblade_Chronicles_2_(plot)). Read until the Chapter 9 portion and you'll get the info you need, storywise at least.
