Final Fantasy VIII The first game in the series to consistently use realistically proportioned characters, FF8 also threw more of a futuristic mix into the old (Hi-)potion that is Final Fantasy.

That's the point; he doesn't like levelling up until you have three characters, and so chooses a longer time limit.

I always chose 40 minutes first up as well because I just wanted to be safe. I used that option a few times but the last time I played that part, I think I chose 20 minutes which was pretty simple as well. I don't think I would try 10 though, I bet I wouldn't make it in that time lol.

I always choose 10 min. I've never actually been in the fire cavern for more than 10 min, I think the longest time I've spent in the cavern is maybe 9 minutes at most.

I thought ten minutes would be like "oh shit...how the fuck do uya manage that?" so i picked 20 mins instaed and had something like 4 minutes left.

all through it i was shouting at the screen "run you...kill that little shit quickly"

But how can you get a third party member if you cant advance further in the game unless you get Ifrit, which means doing the Fire Cavan???

I don't see how any needs more that 10 friggin minutes! This is the simplest of all the missions and it only takes 7 minutes at the most to acquire Ifrit. The first time I beat the Fire Cave I think I had about two and a half minutes left after choosing the 10 minute option.

And maybe people want to level up whilst they are in there. Just case you do it in the shortest time doesnt mean everyone should.

If someone is concerned about leveling up then the Fire Cavern is not the place to be. The best place would be either the Training Center at Balamb Garden or, if the T-Rexaurs are giving you too much hell, the forests outside Balamb Garden. Even the beach is the best place to gain AP.

I did some leveling up in there before I encountered Ifrit for my GFs in order to get Boost early in the game. Theres nothing wrong in levelling up in there if you have a few minutes to kill.
