Paweł Sasko, the original game director
Paweł Sasko was not Cyberpunk 2077’s original game director. CD Projekt’s official materials identify him as an associate game director, while Adam Badowski is explicitly credited as Cyberpunk 2077’s game director.
Full reasoning
This description misstates Paweł Sasko’s role on Cyberpunk 2077. CD Projekt’s official 2024 PAX East panel announcement lists Paweł Sasko as Associate Game Director. Separately, CD Projekt’s official 2018 gameplay-reveal announcement quotes Adam Badowski and identifies him as “Cyberpunk 2077 Game Director.”
So while Sasko has held major creative roles on the franchise, calling him the original game director is incorrect. Official CD Projekt sources instead identify Adam Badowski as the game director and Paweł Sasko as associate game director.

Story: Thomasz Marchewk
This credits the wrong name. Dark Horse lists the writer of Cyberpunk 2077: Kickdown as Tomasz Marchewka, not “Thomasz Marchewk.”
Full reasoning
The creator credit here is incorrect. Dark Horse’s official page for Cyberpunk 2077: Kickdown #1 identifies the writer as Tomasz Marchewka. The article’s text changes both the spelling of the first name and the surname, resulting in a name that does not match the official credit.
This is not just a stylistic variant: the officially credited writer is Tomasz Marchewka.

the city was founded in the mid-2040s and has continued to progress since
Night City was not founded in the 2040s. Official Cyberpunk materials say it was founded by Richard Night, and R. Talsorian’s official timeline places Coronado City’s incorporation in 1994.
Full reasoning
This is incorrect by several decades.
CD Projekt RED’s official Cyberpunk 2077 lore page says “Night City was founded by tech giant and visionary Richard Night.” R. Talsorian Games’ official Night City 2045 timeline then dates that founding era precisely: construction on Coronado City begins in 1993, Coronado City is officially incorporated in 1994, and after Richard Night is assassinated in 1998, the city is renamed Night City.
So Night City’s origins are in the 1990s, not the mid-2040s. By the 2040s, the city had already existed for decades.
