I miss tower for everything it stood for

 

I disagree here. 
for me tower stands for the moment the park went “stuff the theme we want to pull in quick bucks”

if they’d tried they could have build a world class ride without destroying majority of the park.

Tower was a world class ride that put the park back on the map. It gave us in a way 2 world class rides.
I agree the placement was just shit, however the layout of the park made it very hard for it to go in anywhere else.

What world class ride would you have put into the park DJ that had the same effect as TOT and GD had at the time? During that era it was all about going taller and faster, and it was TOT and GD that put Dreamworld on the world stage for the first time ever. So when I say “what it stood for”, that’s what I mean. I hate what it did to the park aesthetic, but I can’t stand there and ignore all the benefits it bought to that park because of the negatives that came with it.

I don’t know what they could have put in. Possibly a large full circuit coaster?

Spend more money and send it out the back or something. Im not sure, and I’m not saying it was a bad decision for the park. 
But I am saying it was certainly a tipping point where thrills took over priority from theme. That’s definitely the catalyst for the park starting to lose its charm. It’s why it was ok to plonk tailspin or Motorsport or cyclone in OCEAN PARADE. And everything else of the same nature.
