The full-sized iPad is still a must if you want to use it to read PDFs (eg, tabletop RPG books), but otherwise I'd agree that the Mini is generally a more attractive option.

They are pixel to pixel the same in display so it really does not make much of a difference--no more of a difference than reading glasses would make at least. In your case perhaps that's worth the $100 and extra bulk, but you can tell where Apple thinks the future is.
