UPDATE since version 5.4 of Laravel it is no longer possible.

You can change your db config, like @Varun suggested, or if you want to do it just in this very case, then:

DB::setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);

// then
DB::table(..)->get(); // array of arrays instead of objects

// of course to revert the fetch mode you need to set it again
DB::setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_CLASS);

For New Laravel above 5.4 (Ver > 5.4) see https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/upgrade fetch mode section

Event::listen(StatementPrepared::class, function ($event) {
    $event->statement->setFetchMode(...);
});
