Maybe in 1.0 people took this game less seriously, or maybe my memory is really horridly off. XD

People in 1.0 definitely did take the game less seriously, except for a select few who managed to get tons of the best gear available. Otherwise, the strange gear mechanics allowing any classes to equip almost anything actually made equipping a character harder in my eyes. I remember the best gear being super expensive and by the time I beat United We Stand, I was on a level 50 character with only a few AF pieces. The rest of my visible gear was on or near 50, but the rest was only around level 38.

I was probably just "the scrub" back then because I never managed to do a single hard mode primal in 1.23, but I hardly think I was alone in being that way.
