>Why would a 22nd-century space marine be sent into action in a darkly lit area without night vision goggles of some sort, or even a helmet? Why wouldn't any of his weapons have light-amplification modules built into them when even today's weapons frequently do? Why, instead, is he stuck carrying around a very weak flashlight with unlimited battery life? Why is he unable to hold a gun and the flashlight at the same time?

Carmack wanted to make a very scary game and the hack figured that limiting player vision was core to that.

Why are you seething over a 20 year old video game, user?

Except for the human character models, Doom 3 looks better. The environments in Doom 3 are much more detailed and the use of lighting and shadows is far superior to Riddick.

Kasavin later made Red Alert 3. Why did he put bear infantry in it?

The flashlight is objectively better than the BFG edition version. All monsters except the headless zombie emit light (from the eyes, flames or projectiles). Most of the set dressing has guiding lights. The only pitch black environments are those where a robot, a device or a dude with a light guide you, and there are no bullshit enemies there.

Also it's pretty funny when you're startled and hit the monster with the flashlight instead of switching to the weapon.

It's interesting to read his review now. He really enjoyed the Half-Life style intro and wanted more character interaction in the game. His criticisms with the gameplay largely centered on it being too similar to the classic Doom games. Nowadays, you see people criticizing it for being too dissimilar to the classic games.
