They did went to the city, but the truth is that no one was there (even the demons are afraid of it, likely because of the taint as Avernus states in his journals), and it was aways black, aways corrupted. I have my own theory of what the black city actually is, but it's an long story.
So, only part of the tale is right. When you ask Giselle about it after Haven, she acts in complete denial over the mere possibility that the Chantry tales are wrong. So I believe there is an real story behind the legend, I even believe there is an real Maker, but surely not as an onimpotent God as the Chantry preaches. I just want the real story to be told. The moment BW went out of their way to disprove the elven gods was the moment they stopped being ambiguous to me. I think they should just give us the truth and be done with it.
The in-game legend says that the City turned black because the magisters went there. That's it. Nothing Corypheus says discredits this. He says that the City was black when they got there, but that doesn't mean it was black to begin with. Their presence could have actually made it black, or maybe it was golden at one point but something else corrupted it before the magisters got there (so all they would have seen was black).
If anything, Corypheus' words give a teeny-tiny bit of credence to the idea that the Maker is real. Or, rather, that the Golden City was His seat. Like I said, it's circumstantial evidence at best and doesn't concretely prove anything, but it's something to go on.
