The problem with going multi-platform on MMOs isn't the technology limitations or even money. It's always getting the console companies to work together. To do it right, you'd want all three playing the same server system, which is what Defiane tried. From what I understand (every preview I read) it worked like a charm in Alpha and early Beta. The issue was Microsoft, they didn't want to share space with Sony on such a large scale and that means the idea got scrapped. Well, that and a very long story with a huge tangental rant at the end, but I'll save you from that. If ESO goes multi-platform it will be on the next-gen, but if it's not playable across the board (me on my PC with a friend on PS4 and Xbox One), then it just won't be worth doing, in my opinion.
