Detroit Become Human file parser
Reads the game's files and extract the text contents to json files.
The tool extracts the text contents, remove some formattings tags, and creates one output file for each language containing the list of translation keys and their value.
Alternatively, to get a list of all values unprocessed in a single file, you can run the unpacker.py script in the scripts folder with Python.
[!NOTE] The tool has only been tested with the Steam version of the game.
