Why would you assume that? This is a CGI trailer. The cutscenes from the Story Trailer came from the game itself, so you know that those are, at least, part of his character. Does Starrick suffer paranoia-induced visions of the Assassins coming for him? Maybe... But it could just as well be something they came up with for this trailer because it looks cool (or, in my opinion, weird).

Well, my assumption comes that they wanted to show another aspect of Starrick - instead of the over the top villain that we saw from in the story trailer. Usually, the CGI trailers are usually in the pre-credit opening, to show off that his paranoia-manic is causing him to act irrationally due to the actions of the assassins.
