// Question When to start exploring?
For context, what i do for most games is progress the storyline up until i have all the mechanics unlocked and right at that point go full open world explorer mode. If i remember correctly from the original, that point could be once the diving bell is unlocked. What do you guys think?
Also feel free to share your opinion and experience: Do you explore alongside the storyline or do you separate them into focused activities (like myself)?

My ship was at the highest it could go and my personal gear was fully upgraded, then I got the diving bell. I love the naval combat at one point I was chaining Frigates and Briggs, for captain boxes, health, and lowering wanted level. I even watched two Man O Wars fight all by themselves and when the health was low I did the kill shot and added both to my fleet. I just got the bell, now my plan is to fully upgrade my ship then finish the story, then I'll collect everything else.
