Why not time dilate? Could make it a variable setting that users can control. At some setting, it'd be fast enough to send commands and win fights without god mode.

Or you could execute the command for a second, then pause the game execution. Make it closer to turn-based Doom.

Allowing a reasonable number of consecutive actions might help, too. Like if I want to go forward two steps and turn 90 degrees to the right, I could send "wwddd." Not as necessary in Twitch Plays Pokemon, but could do wonders here.

But as mentioned, it would have to be capped to some number to prevent abuse.
