CGI is damn expensive, the movie Beowulf, was done in a style similar to the ESO trailer (though I think the ESO trailer had alot of live-action also). That movie cost $150,000,000; more than the first two seasons of GoT combined.

How much did Skyrim cost to Bethesda? If it wasn't CGI, they would have to spend more at location shooting, actor hiring, and it would still have a huge amount of animated elements; because Tamriel has a lot more fantasy stuff than Westeros. A motion actor for goblins, voice actors for dragons, heck, the whole idea frightens me.
