a semi-realistic one: to have the achivments worth something, except the coolness factor

Just to face those guys who will then unlock them using some kind of third party software? Meh.

DRM-Free, no trade region-locked, buy as CD-Key, multilayer cross-platform (GOG, Desura, Origin, etc), some kind of refund system, Better support.

You can hear from steam?

"We cancelled our recent absurd shitrules: region locks and 7-days-untradable-stuff-from-SCM, also, we fired the fucker who came up with them in the first place!"
"You can now choose whatever steam level / steam badge level you'd like to display on your profile"

"We're so so sorry that we stopped you from buying games for half as much from exploited regions. We don't mind you taking away income from us and the devs who made the games you want, so enjoy buying from Russians again instead of your own region." Yeah, I'm sure that would be great news.

That argument works only if those purchases would be made domestically if regional pricing weren't available. If the purchase would 100% be made at the lowest price available, the region restriction does indeed help developers and valve. However if you assume the purchases are made only because of the low regional price, it is the developers and valve who lose money from region restrictions. I would be interested to know which of these had the most impact over the winter sale.

I think it has a much more positive effect overall. There are people who used to use price exploitation to get games cheaper, but they'll still pay $60 for a brand new game that they want. There are going to be a lot of people who won't pay $60 for a game in any situation, but now instead of getting a $60 game for $30 the day it comes out they're going to wait for a sale a few months from then and buy it for $20 or $30. While I'm sure there are a small group of game hoarders who would buy new games they didn't really want to play to pad out their account from Russians and now they have to cut back on it, I don't think they'll make any real difference compared to everyone else who buys games.

All games in all regions are now locked, game prices will be adjusted to meet the average monthly salary in specific regions.
F&$% traders. Just give me fair price, not the one from USA or Germany.

That they have developed holo-decks like in Star Trek and we can now beam ourselves directly into a game's environment.
Either that or that they have found a way end to all ideological intolerance and bring peace on earth.

Dear Customers, we are pleased to announced that we have made a deal with EA to sell the whole Steam platform, from now on you'll be able to enjoy your games just as it's used to be but with EA's great reputation made through their history and starting next year, a light monthly fee per month will be introduced because... monopoly. We hope you'll keep enjoying these games which you paid with real money, that we control with a restricted account and keep in mind that a non-received payment will lead to the destruction of saves and games in your account. The EA saves-management will be taken cared of by experts in the field of cloud; Ubisoft, with their trusted Uplay platform. We hope you will enjoy brand new yearly release of updated games disguised as new ones along with very omnipresent subtle publicity along them coupled with next gen graphics, no frustrating gameplay hassle, that will brainwash you away :)
Leaving your world, Pay in ours.
Sincerely: Steam April Fools Division.

Games bought actually belong to us and can't be removed or accounts closed for random reasons.

"After the region locks, 1 week lock for keys, 30 day waiting period for gifts, we decided to remove all the games from all the users. Why you ask? For the glory of our savior and master Gabe Newell whom needs desperate souls to survive"
This would be good news

That they're giving me a Steam Machine for free as a promo offer.

Microsoft buys Steam and integrates video driver and Direct X update service into it. All XB 360 titles ported, all pouring money down the drain (read, pretending *nix can be in any way gaming system) stops immediately and all titles receive 10% permanent rebate on the account of no longer wasted resources :3

Well for me is the removal of the region lock restrictions.
It feels like breaking out from a prison although I haven't done any crimes.
How about you?
