As these fields belongs to sys_file_reference, the only way is to marking all sys_file_references this fields as required:

$GLOBALS['TCA']['sys_file_reference']['columns']['description']['config']['eval'] = 'required';

The assets field is an inline relation to "sys_file_reference". As you overrode the assets configuration of pages / tt_content you can also change the field configuration of sys_file_reference adding 'eval' => 'required' to those fields configuration. The problem: Those fields got a checkbox about the heredity of description, title and so on from the filelist. So maybe the field is filled in the meta-data in the filellist but not in the inline element which caused an validation error for me in TYPO3 6 LTS. Maybe TYPO3 7 or 8 LTS can handle "required" for those field already but I don't have time to test it right now.
